The emperor and the crown prince want to amnesty the world, but things are not that simple, someone must write the imperial decree, right
Unfortunately, Wei Zhi was on duty in the Taiji Palace today. As soon as he received the edict, he put down his pen and said, "The matter of amnesty is very involved. I will talk about it after I confirm with His Majesty."
The eunuch who came to deliver the decree said: "Your Majesty means to issue the decree immediately. While the queen's condition is getting better now, I will make another effort and pray for blessings. Maybe people will be fine."
Of course, Wei Zhi didn’t believe in amnesty and praying for blessings. He felt that the crown prince and the emperor were in a hurry to go to the doctor. When he heard that all the princes and princesses agreed, especially the third prince who actively wanted to go to the Ministry of Punishment to help, he got up and asked: "Where is His Majesty now?"
The internal officer was taken aback, his intuition was not good, and he said quickly: "Your Majesty is accompanying the empress in the Lizheng Hall."
He added: "Your Majesty is sick."
It means, do you have the nerve to let the queen suffer at this time
Wei Zhi was really embarrassed, so he didn't go directly to the Lizheng Hall to find the emperor, but turned around to look for Zhao Guogong.
Zhao Guogong is the queen's elder brother. He was leisurely drinking tea in the Ministry of War. When he happened to look outside, he saw Wei Zhi walking towards him.
Zhao Guogong was taken aback, immediately put down his teacup, turned around and was about to slip away.
Liu Shangshu who was sitting opposite him grabbed his sleeve and said angrily, "Why are you hiding from him?"
"Oh, it's usually not good for him to find someone. If I don't hide, why stay here?"
"Then you have to ask what's the matter first," Liu Shangshu snarled at him: "Run away without even asking, and spread the news about your Zhao Guogong's face?"
Just when the two were entangled, Wei Zhi pushed the door in, and Liu Shangshu immediately let go of his sleeve.
Zhao Guogong understood now, "Okay, Liu Hui, you did it on purpose!"
Wei Zhi: "What intentional?"
Zhao Guogong gave him a sideways look, turned around and sat down on the chair, and asked, "Why is Mr. Wei coming to see me?"
It was nothing special, there was no need to beat around the bush, Wei Zhi directly told the two of the emperor's will.
Seeing that both Zhao Guogong and Liu Shangshu frowned slightly, they knew that they didn't agree very much, so he proposed: "Let's go to see His Majesty together, and persuade him?"
Although Liu Hui didn't agree with it, he was unwilling to wade into the water, so he said, "Our household department is busy. Mr. Zhao is the uncle of the country. Let him go with you."
Wei Zhi mainly came to find Zhao Guogong, so he looked at him.
Zhao Guogong cursed Liu Hui secretly, and defended the emperor and the prince, saying: "Your Majesty is also worried about the empress, if praying for blessings is really useful, in fact praying for blessings is not bad."
"Have you ever seen when amnesty was useful for healing?"
"How do you know it's useless if you haven't tried it?" Zhao Guogong said: "The empress is blessed by heaven, if many people sincerely pray for the empress together, and the empress has the merit of rebirth, how do you know that the heaven will not have mercy on the empress?"
"But those are all villains who commit crimes and rape!"
"So we have to save them into the human realm. If they are dragged to the execution ground and beheaded, they will enter the animal realm."
Wei Zhi felt that this was a complete fallacy, so he was so angry that he quarreled with Zhao Guogong on the spot.
There was a lot of noise here, and the emperor in the Lizheng Hall over there waited for a long time for the imperial decree to come, and couldn't help frowning, "Why did it take so long to write the decree?"
He looked at Gu Zhong, and Gu Zhong bowed and retreated. He came back after a while, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Lord Wei is on duty in the Tai Chi Hall today."
emperor:…
He regretted it. In fact, it would be the same if he made an order tomorrow.
Man Bao is exchanging medical skills with the imperial physicians. Of course, the empress's condition is still around, and it spreads to the treatment of various qi diseases.
Xiao Yuan wanted to see Man Bao's acupuncture technique, mainly because he wanted to know how good her acupuncture technique was, so that he could adjust the treatment method for the queen later.
In fact, besides these imperial physicians, there are also female doctors in the palace, not many, but there are five of them.
But their medical skills are far inferior to Man Bao, let alone these imperial doctors.
What they have learned is similar to that of the medicine boys around the imperial physicians, and they cannot prescribe prescriptions independently.
It's not that they are not smart, nor are they unwilling to learn, it's just that their medical skills are not too advanced for various reasons.
The medical girls in the palace were also selected by sons of good families, and most of them were the concubine daughters of the imperial physicians' residences.
Most of them followed their father and brother at home to learn some diseases and nursing methods that women often suffer from, and then they were sent to the palace to become medical women.
If you can be selected, you can get the title of Ninth Rank Medical Female.
But they will not be medical ladies in the palace all their lives. Most of them are selected at the age of twelve or thirteen, and when they are eighteen or nineteen, twenty at the latest. up.
But because they have worked as medical girls in the palace, they can choose more and better than before.
But it is also because they are all married, most of their families are unwilling to teach them core medical skills.
Similarly, very few women devote themselves to studying medical skills, because after a few years they will get married and have children, and the chances of using medical skills will be much less.
In the final analysis, they still underestimated medical women, and at the same time underestimated medicine.
The chiefs of all ministries are all second-rank, and only the director of the Imperial Hospital is only fourth-rank.
Although Man Bao has long been famous in the capital, and they also saw her medical skills when they talked with her just now, Xiao Yuanzheng still wanted to be more sure.
Man Bao then made an appointment with Xiao Yuanzheng to go to his house to get an injection in the evening and let him see her skills.
The crown prince was standing not far from them, and when he heard that Wei Zhi was not willing to write the imperial decree, he was unhappy and said, "If the mother's illness is delayed because of him, Wei Zhi, can he afford it?"
Wei Zhi is her own person, so Man Bao couldn't help but look at the prince, and seeing that he was furious, she went to look at the emperor again, seeing that he was also silent, with a look of approval on her face, she couldn't hold back, "Your Majesty and Won't the crown prince ask the queen?"
The crown prince was angry, when he heard this, he turned to look at her, "What's the matter with you?"
Man Bao frowned, "Your Majesty, Prince, if you want to forgive the world and pray for the queen, you obviously believe in karma, but you have to know that most of the people in prison are wicked, especially those who have been sentenced to beheaded. I am grateful to the queen, and let the queen get the retribution, but who will bear the hatred of those innocent people who were killed by them and their families? Isn't this fruit going to fall on the queen in the end?"
The prince was angry: "They dare!"
Man Bao glanced at the prince silently, and said to himself: You control the sky and the earth, but you can also control what people think
The prince obviously thought of this too, especially after meeting Shang Manbao's gaze, it was hard not to understand.
He was silent for a moment, then turned to look at his father.
